9.Rotate the lens turret (item #10) to select the right lens for ideal viewing.

10.The greater the magnification the darker the room should be.

HORIZONTAL PROJECTION

1.Holding the neck of the microprojector with your left hand, place your right hand around the back of the dust proof revolving disk (item #14 avail- able on X-1000-1 only) and pull the projecting mechanism up into the hori- zontal position

2.When using liquids and projecting horizontally, the instrument head must be placed in a vertical position. Bring the specimen into focus while in the vertical position, then move the mirror (item# 15) into the light path and adjust so the image appears on the screen. Select the lens desired and refocus.

LIGHT POLARIZATION

1.Rotate the polarizing lens/analyzer (item #6 - white) until the lens is beneath the light beam.

2.Rotate the dust proof revolving disk (item #14) until the RED “P” on the edge of the disk is directly below the RED line.

3.Place a slide containing polarizing material on the stage.

4.Bring into focus and change colors by turning the polarizing lens/analyz- er. (item #5)

USE AS A MICROSCOPE

(X-1000-1 only)

1.Rotate the auxiliary lens disk (item #14) until the RED “E” on the edge of the disk is directly below the RED line.

2.Rotate the light diffusing lens (item #5-darker lens) until it is under the light beam.

3.Place the unit in the horizontal position.

4.View the specimen through the 10X eyepiece tube (item #16).

5.Bring into focus using the 16mm lens; then select the lens desired.

Instructions covering the use of Ken-A-Vision Microprojector Model X1000-

1 apply except for the following:

1.Under “Vertical Projection” instructions disregard #4. Model Trig has only one objective lens.

2.Under “Vertical Projection” instructions disregard #7 entirely. Turning the knob between the two mounting rods adjusts the focus.

3.Under “Vertical Projection” disregard #9 in its entirety.

4.Instructions for the light polarization and use as a microscope are the same as for Model X1000-1

VERTICAL PROJECTION

1.Turn the switch to the “ON” position.

2.Place a white sheet of paper between the legs of the base.

3.Rotate lenses (item#5 and #6), polarizing lens (item#14) 5X Wide Field auxiliary lens (item #15), and the mirror (item #16) so the light beam will not be obstructed.

4.Rotate the revolving lens turret (item#10) containing the three lenses, until the 16mm lens (item#11) is positioned so the light beam penetrates it.

5.Place a specimen slide on the stage (item#8), and center it under the light.

6.Turn the focusing knob (item#9) and lower the stage (item#8) to the lowest posi- tion;then reverse the direction until the specimen is brought into focus.

7.To use the 5X Wide Field Auxiliary lens (item#15), move it directly under the light beam. It can be used with any of these lenses.

8.Rotate the lens turret (item#10) to select the proper lens for ideal viewing.

9.The greater the magnification the darker the room should be.

HORIZONTAL PROJECTION

1.Follow the above instructions; then holding the neck of the microprojector with your left hand, place your right hand around the back of the focusing knob(item#9), and pull the projecting mechanism up into the horizontal position.

2.When using liquids and projecting horizontally, the instrument head must be placed in a vertical position. Bring the specimen into focus while in the vertical posi- tion, then move the mirror( item#16) into the light path and adjust so the image appears on the screen. Select the lens desired and refocus.

LIGHT POLARIZATION

1.Rotate the polarizing lens/analyzer (item #5 - darker lens) until the lens is beneath the light beam.

2.Rotate the Revolving Lens Turret (item #10) until the RED “P” on the edge of the disk is directly below the RED line.

3.Place a slide containing polarizing material on the stage (item #8).

4.Bring into focus and change colors by turning the polarizing lens (item #14)
